Change Git bash directory using sh script

Question

I am trying to run a simple sh script in git bash with the following commands:

mkdir "last"
cd last

and execute

$sh myscript.sh

I expect that git bash change the directory to last but it is still in the same directory.

I am using windows 7 64bit

You should call the contained statements in your current bash with . myscript.sh to have that process change its directory.
